Yet, the media have become a tool for struggle in women’s world, just like in other “disregarded”, “weakened” communities. A dangerous tool! This is because women constitute half of the population on a global scale. In this respect the media should not exist by addressing and being nourished by only one half of the population. However, today’s media form a structure, in almost every part of the world, in which only men make decisions and media context is maledominated. The media, with their sexist language and perspective, are far away from representing women."Pages: 141-154engCreative Commons Copyright (CC 2.5)womenmediahuman rightsreportergender ethicsPolitical ethicsCultural ethicsMedia/communication/information ethicsSocial ethicsSexual orientation/genderCommunity ethicsEthics of lawRights based legal ethicsBook chapter
